The Mathieu equation governs the forced motion of a swing, the stability of ships and columns, Faraday surface wave patterns on water,, the dynamics of electrons in Penning traps, and the behaviour of parametric amplifiers based on electronic or superconducting devices. Theory predicts that... mehr

Abstract The goals of this study were to assess the results of a suite of sediment and water column bioassays in the framework of a toxicological risk ranking model and evaluate correlations of model output with fish community metrics. The test sites were located in four tributaries of Chesapeake... mehr
